Evaluation of the Fire-Free Village Program on Forest and Land Fires in Pelalawan Regency (Case Study: Segati Village)
type: item
description: Forest and land fires pose a serious threat to Pelalawan Regency, undermining environmental sustainability and community well-being. The Fire-Free Village (FFV) program serves as a preventive initiative that promotes active community participation and institutional collaboration. This study aims to analyze internal and external factors influencing the effectiveness of the FFV program and to formulate strategies for strengthening its implementation and adaptability to local conditions. A mixed-methods approach combined with SWOT analysis was employed, focusing on five program-supported villages. The findings indicate that strengths such as strong community participation and government policy support serve as key assets. At the same time, weaknesses and threats include limited resources and the persistent culture of land burning. Optimization strategies include enhancing human resource capacity, developing alternative economic activities, improving early-detection technologies, and promoting education grounded in local cultural values. These findings contribute significantly to the development of more effective and sustainable forest and land fire prevention strategies in Pelalawan Regency.

Tissue Structure of Pangasianodon hypophthalmus Fed on Cosmos caudatus-Enriched Pellets and Reared in Saline Media
type: item
description: Cosmos caudatus is known as an herb that may improve fish health in general. However, the effects of this herb provision on the fish tissue structure have never been studied. To determine any changes in fish tissue provided with C. caudatus-enriched pellets, a study was conducted in June - August 2024. A CRD with 4 treatments: T0 (control), T1 (10 g/kg), T2 (15 g/kg), and T3 (20 g/kg), and 3 replications per treatment was applied. Commercial fish feed pellets were mixed with C. caudatus powder, and this feed was given to the experimental fish 3 times/day, at satiation. The fish was reared in saline media (5 ppt) for 60 days. By the end of the experiment, the tissue was removed and processed for histological study (formalin-fixed, alcohol series processed, 5mm sliced, HE-stained). Results showed that the provision of C. caudatus-enriched pellets does not affect the tissue structure of the fish in general, as the tissue structure was almost normal. However, abnormalities were observed in several fish, including the control fish, including hyperplasia and hemorrhage in the gills, glomerular damage and hemorrhage in kidney tissue, and hepatocyte damage in the liver. As the control fish that were not fed C. caudatus showed abnormalities in their tissues, it is predicted that the provision of C. caudatus may not cause the damage; instead, it may be related to other factors, such as water salinity. T1 (10 g/kg feed) had the highest survival rate at 96.66%. Based on the data provided, it can be concluded that the provision of C. caudatus-enriched pellets does not negatively affect the fish's tissue structure.

Morphometric, Meristic, and Species Identification of Nemacheilus spp in the Sibam River, Pekanbaru, Riau
type: item
description: A type of fish suspected to have morphological characteristics similar to Nemacheilus spp was found in the Sibam River. However, the species has not yet been identified with certainty. This study aims to identify the types of Nemacheilus spp in the Sibam River based on morphometric and meristic characteristics. This study was conducted from September to November 2024. Sampling was conducted six times in the upper reaches of the Sibam River at two-week intervals. The fish samples obtained were then measured for their morphometric characteristics and counted for their meristic characteristics, followed by species identification based on relevant literature. The results showed that 38 Nemacheilus spp were caught, comprising 18 males and 20 females. Morphologically, male fish tended to have more contrasting and brighter body colors than females, which were relatively paler. Among the 24 morphometric characters observed, four characters showed differences between male and female fish, namely the head height (HH) of male fish was relatively shorter than females, the body height (BH) of female fish was higher than males, the distance from the dorsal fin to the caudal fin (DFCF) of males is longer than that of females, and the eye diameter (ED) of males is smaller than that of females. The meristic characteristics of male and female fish show similarities, with fin formulas D.II 6-8, P 9-12, V 6-7, A 4-5, and C 13-16.

The Relationship between Chlorophyll a and Total Phosphorus (Total-P) in Perupuk Lake, Perhentian Raja Sub-District, Kampar, Riau
type: item
description: The province of Riau has many freshwater bodies that play a very important role in the lives of the surrounding communities. This study aims to determine the relationship between chlorophyll a and Total-P (Total Phosphorus) concentrations, and to evaluate the trophic status of Lake Perupuk in Perhentian Raja District, Kampar Regency, Riau Province. This study was conducted from October to December 2024 at three stations: Station 1 (estuary, without settlements), Station 2 (main lake area with fish cages), and Station 3 (estuary with settlements and agricultural activities). Sampling was carried out five times at one-week intervals at the surface and at a depth of 2 Secchi. The parameters measured included chlorophyll a, Total-P, temperature, transparency (Secchi depth), pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), free carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrate. The results showed that chlorophyll a concentration ranged from 11.04 to 14.14 µg/L, with the highest value at Station 2 (14.14 µg/L) and the lowest at Station 1 (11.04 µg/L). Total-P concentrations ranged from 0.0168 to 0.0338 mg/L, following the same pattern: highest at Station 3 (0.0338 mg/L) and lowest at Station 1 (0.0168 mg/L). Simple regression analysis showed an insignificant relationship between Total-P and chlorophyll-a (R² = 0.0266–0.0774), indicating that, in mesotrophic waters, other factors, such as light and nitrogen availability, also affect chlorophyll-a concentrations. Based on chlorophyll a and Total-P concentrations, Lake Perupuk is categorized as a mesotrophic water body, with supporting parameters within the optimal range for aquatic organisms

type: item
description: Striped catfish is a consumable fish with a good selling price and is a leading export commodity in Indonesia. Striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypopthalmus) often experience slow growth due to several factors that affect metabolic efficiency and nutrient intake. This study aims to determine the optimal dose of rabal probiotics to improve the growth and survival of catfish using a recirculation system. This study was conducted from April to June 2025 for 50 days at the Aquaculture Technology Laboratory, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, Universitas Riau. The method used was an experiment with a completely randomized design (CRD), using four treatments (P1 = control, P2 = Rabal probiotic 30 ml/100g feed, P3 = Rabal probiotic 35 ml/100g feed, P4 = Rabal probiotic 40 ml/100g feed) and three replicates. The results showed that administering Rabal probiotics at different doses affected the growth and survival of P. hypophthalmus in including average weight and length growth, specific growth rate, feed efficiency, feed conversion ratio, and survival. The best treatment was found in treatment P4 (40 ml/100 g feed), which showed significant growth (P<0.05), namely absolute length of 3.72 cm, absolute weight of 6.74 g, specific growth rate of 2.08%, FCR value of 1.43, feed efficiency of 69.93%, and survival rate of 85%.

Analysis of Coastal Abrasion Rate and Sediment Fractions at Tiram Beach, West Sumatra
type: item
description: Tiram Beach, located in Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra Province, is one of the coastal areas under environmental pressure from coastal abrasion. Abrasion leads to shoreline retreat and negative impacts on local socio-economic activities. This study aims to analyze the rate of coastal abrasion and sediment fractions at Tiram Beach over 20 years (2003–2023), and to identify the dominant sediment characteristics in the area. The research methods included analysis of Landsat satellite imagery (2003, 2013, and 2023). Results show that Tiram Beach has undergone consistent shoreline retreat, with abrasion rates ranging from 2.2 to 3.1 meters per year. The sediment is predominantly composed of coarse sand and gravel, classified as poorly sorted, with skewness values indicating a dominance of coarse particles in certain zones. Contributing factors to abrasion include high-energy waves from the Indian Ocean, strong coastal currents, and human activities such as tourism and coastal infrastructure development. In conclusion, coastal abrasion at Tiram Beach is significant and poses a threat to the sustainability of the coastal zone if left unmanaged. Mitigation measures such as the construction of coastal protection structures, rehabilitation of coastal vegetation, and integrated coastal spatial planning are recommended to reduce future impacts.

Types and Abundance of Phytoplankton in the Genting River Estuary, Tanjung Medang Village, North Rupat District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau
type: item
description: The waters of North Rupat are an area with various anthropogenic activities, including tourism, industry, transportation, and activities of local communities who work as farmers, ranchers, traders, and fishermen, which may cause water pollution. The estuaries in this area have mangrove ecosystems, seagrass beds, and open waters that support the life of aquatic organisms. Phytoplankton, as primary producers, play an important role in the food chain and can serve as biological indicators of water quality and fertility. This study aims to determine the types and abundance of phytoplankton in the Genting River Estuary, Tanjung Medang Village. The study was conducted in September 2024 using a survey method to obtain primary data in the form of phytoplankton samples and water quality parameters. Samples were taken three times at weekly intervals, then identified and counted for abundance. The results showed that there were 43 types of phytoplankton consisting of Bacillariophyceae (23 types), Chlorophyceae (7 types), Cyanophyceae (8 types), Dinophyceae (1 type), Euglenophyceae (1 type), and Zygnematophyceae (3 types). The abundance of phytoplankton ranged from 6,280 to 7,560 cells/L, indicating low water fertility. Water quality parameters (temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, free carbon dioxide, nitrate, and phosphate) still support phytoplankton survival. Thus, it can be concluded that the waters of the Genting River Estuary exhibit a fairly high phytoplankton diversity but are classified as low in fertility

The Potential of Various Types of Decomposers on the Effectiveness of Palm Oil Fruit Bunch (EFB) Composting and a Study of Socio-Economic Conditions in the Village of Lubuk Ogung
type: item
description: Empty fruit bunches (EFB) are the main solid waste product of the palm oil industry and have great potential to be processed into high-value organic fertilizer. However, the natural decomposition process is very slow. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of several types of decomposers (EM-4, Eco-enzyme, M-21, and MSG-3) in accelerating the TKKS composting process and to identify the socio-economic conditions and perceptions of the Lubuk Ogung Village community regarding community-based waste management. The method used was a mixed-methods design, with a completely randomized design (CRD) and three replicates for technical analysis and in-depth interviews for social aspects. The parameters observed included the C/N ratio, organic C, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The results showed that Eco-enzyme and M-21 were the most effective decomposers, producing final C/N ratios of 16.44 and 17.25, respectively, which meet the SNI 7763:2024 standard. Socially, the community showed a positive perception of TKKS composting, though they still faced obstacles in technical knowledge, market access, and program sustainability. These findings indicate that the application of decomposer technology, particularly Eco-enzyme, has the potential to strengthen waste management and promote community empowerment through circular economy practices at the village level.

Physiological and Biochemical Responses in the Blood of Striped Catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) to the Addition of Papaya Seed Extract (Carica papaya L.) to Feed
type: item
description: Striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypopthalmus) is a group of catfish that has become one of the leading freshwater commodities. This gives striped catfish (P. hypopthalmus) a fairly good market potential. A frequent constraint in fish farming is the risk of disease outbreaks. One factor contributing to the failure of fish farming and resulting in significant mortality is disease. One pathogenic bacterium responsible for disease is Aeromonas hydrophila, which is often found in freshwater and causes 80-100% of fish mortality in a short period. The method used is an experimental method employing a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with one factor, 5 treatment levels, and 3 replications. The treatments used in this study refer to. The study on the addition of papaya seed extract (Carica papaya L.) to the feed found that it affects the physiological and biochemical responses of striped catfish (P. hypophthalmus). The best feeding dosage with the addition of papaya seed extract of 3.0 mL/kg of feed results in glucose levels of 70.33 mg/dL, calcium 12.53 mg/dL, magnesium 2.73 mg/dL, phosphorus 8.66 mg/dL, lysozyme activity 275 units/mL, absolute weight gain 14.92g, absolute length gains 5.25cm, and survival rate reaching 93.33%. The researcher recommends conducting further studies on the addition of papaya seed extract at a dosage of 3.0 mL/kg of feed to improve growth in different test fish and advises against using papaya seed extract in high doses.

The Effect of Protease Enzyme and Citric Acid Addition on the Organoleptic Properties of Catfish Head Milk
type: item
description: This study evaluated the effects of combining protease enzyme dosages (0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%) with citric acid levels (0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5%) on the organoleptic quality of catfish head milk, including color, aroma, taste, homogenization/clarity, and panelist acceptance. The product was formulated through enzymatic hydrolysis under controlled pH conditions and subsequently assessed using a sensory scoring scale. The results showed that the treatments significantly affected color (F = 4.13; p < 0.05), homogenization (F = 2.39; p < 0.05), and overall hedonic preference (F = 3.03; p < 0.05), but had no significant effects on aroma (F = 1.62; p > 0.05) or taste (F = 1.39; p > 0.05). Specifically, the best color was obtained at 0.5% protease and 0.5% citric acid (A1B3), while the highest homogenization occurred at 0.5% protease and 0.1% citric acid (A1B1). In terms of overall liking, the highest score was recorded at 1.5% protease and 0.5% citric acid (A3B3), followed by 0.5% protease and 0.3% citric acid (A1B2). However, when considering the balance among all attributes (color, aroma, taste, and homogenization), the combination of low protease with low to moderate citric acid levels (0.5% protease; 0.1–0.3% citric acid) provided the most stable performance, producing a relatively bright color, more acceptable flavor and aroma, and better physical stability. Overall, the enzymatic hydrolysis approach with moderate pH adjustment proved effective at enhancing sensory acceptance and offers a promising method for transforming low-value fish by-products into consumer-preferred functional food products

Optimisation of the Use of Cultivation System Technology to Increase Tilapia (Oreocromis niloticus) Production in Intensive Cultivation in the Era of Modernisation
type: item
description: Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is one of the main commodities in freshwater aquaculture because it is highly adaptable and easy to breed. In intensive aquaculture systems, production success is highly dependent on fish growth, which is closely related to feed availability and water quality. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of modern aquaculture technologies, namely the biofloc system, aquaponics, and the Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS), in supporting the success of tilapia aquaculture. The research was conducted in August 2025 at the Freshwater Aquaculture Center of the Sibolga College of Fisheries, North Sumatra. The research method used a completely randomised design with four treatments and three replicates. The results showed that the aquaponics technology (P3) produced the highest absolute weight growth (9.97±0.02 g), specific growth rate (4.26±0.00%/day), and absolute length (1.77±0.06 cm), followed by RAS (P2), control (P0), and biofloc (P1). The survival rate across all treatments ranged from 95.33% to 97.33%, indicating Tilapia's good adaptability to various farming systems. Water quality parameters were within optimal ranges: 29-30°C, pH 6.1-7.6, dissolved oxygen 4.5-5.0 mg/L, and ammonia 0.0001-0.0005 mg/L. The aquaponic system showed the most stable water quality with the lowest ammonia concentration (0.0001-0.0003 mg/L). This study demonstrates that aquaponic technology provides the best treatment for modernised intensive tilapia farming

Enhancement of Fish Immunity and Survival Rate Through Dietary Supplementation with Sargassum sp. Powder
type: item
description: Pathogenic bacterial infections in intensive aquaculture systems are among the primary causes of high fish mortality, underscoring the need for safe, sustainable natural antibacterial alternatives. Sargassum sp. is known to contain bioactive compounds with potential antibacterial and immunostimulatory properties. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with Sargassum sp. powder on the immune response and survival rate of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The experiment was conducted using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with one factor and five treatments: negative control (Kn), positive control (Kp), and dietary treatments P1 (15 g/kg feed), P2 (30 g/kg feed), and P3 (45 g/kg feed). Observed parameters included hematological profiles (erythrocytes, leukocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and leukocrit) and survival rate during 30 days of rearing. The results showed that dietary supplementation with Sargassum sp. powder significantly improved hematological parameters in Nile tilapia compared with the control groups. The highest values were observed in P1, with total erythrocytes (1.66 × 10⁶ cells/mm³), hemoglobin (8.73%), hematocrit (31.3%), and leukocrit (1.67%). The highest survival rate was also recorded in P1 and Kp (100%). Therefore, the inclusion of Sargassum sp. powder at 15–30 g/kg feed is recommended as the optimal dosage to enhance the immunity and survival rate of Nile tilapia

type: item
description: Lake Bokuok is an oxbow lake located in Aursati Village, Tambang District, Kampar Regency, Riau Province. This lake has undergone changes due to human activities, affecting the existence of aquatic organisms, including plants and fish. This study aims to determine the relationship between aquatic plants and fish in Lake Bokuok. Data collection was carried out in February-March 2025 using a survey method. Aquatic plant samples were collected once for species identification and four times for density calculations, while fish samples were collected four times for fish count calculations. The study results showed differences in aquatic plant density and total fish numbers across the three stations. Among the three stations, four aquatic plant species and four fish species were identified. Station III had the highest aquatic plant density and relative density (57.32 Ind/m²), which also correlated with the highest fish count (59 individuals). Conversely, Station II had the lowest aquatic plant density (25.08 Ind/m²) and the fewest fish (33 individuals). Statistical analysis showed a positive correlation between aquatic plant density and fish abundance, though the relationship was not statistically significant. Water quality in the lake is still considered suitable for supporting aquatic organisms. This study provides an initial overview of the role of aquatic plants in supporting fish life in natural lakes. These results are significant as a basis for water management and the development of sustainable conservation policies to maintain the ecological balance of Lake Bokuok

Types and Abundance of Microplastics in Lokan (Geloina erosa) in the Mangrove Ecosystem of Kedabu Rapat Village, Meranti Islands
type: item
description: One of the current problems for coastal areas is the high level of plastic waste. This waste degrades into microplastic particles, which can threaten the life of marine biota, including the lokan (G. erosa). Lokan (G. erosa) is used as a bioindicator to study the type and content of microplastics in the mangrove ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in microplastic abundance between stations and microplastic content between sea turtle sizes, as well as the relationship between shell length and meat weight with microplastic content. This study was conducted from December 2024 to February 2025 in Kedabu Village, Meranti Islands Regency, which directly borders the Malacca Strait. The survey method was used, purposive sampling at three stations: the conservation mangrove area, the mangrove area near the fishing port, and the mangrove area near the settlement. Sea turtles were taken during low tide, each one using a machete. Individual per station. The study results showed that three types of microplastics were found in the lokan (G. erosa): fiber, film, and fragments, with an average of 32.73 particles per individual. There was a significant difference in microplastic content between small and large sea turtles, but microplastic abundance between stations did not differ significantly. The highest microplastic abundance was found at Station 1 (11,331 particles/g). Shell length and meat weight showed a moderate positive relationship with microplastic content

Potential and Utilization Rate of Anchovy (Stolephorus sp) Landed at UPTD Fishery Port Region I, Carocok Tarusan, West Sumatra Province
type: item
description: Open-access fishery resources encourage fishing competition that can cause stock decreases and overfishing; therefore, bioeconomic management based on sustainability potential and utilization rate assessments is needed to maintain sustainability. This research aims to determine anchovies' potential and utilization rate (Stolephorus sp) at the UPTD Fishery Port Region I, Carocok Tarusan, West Sumatra Province. The research was conducted in December 2024 using secondary data in the form of annual catch and fishing effort for 2016-2023, obtained from relevant institutions. The methods used were the Catch Per Unit Effort (CPUE) and surplus production models of Schaefer and Fox. Based on the results of the analysis, the Schaefer surplus production model was the most appropriate model for analyzing the potential of anchovies at the Carocok Tarusan Fishing Port. This model estimates MSY at 445,211.65 kg/year with an optimum effort of 6,547 trips/year. JTB is estimated at 356,169.32 kg/year. During the research period, the average utilization rate of anchovies reached 54%, showing that fish stocks were in a moderate state. This means anchovy resources have not been overexploited and can still be utilized optimally. The exploitation rate of 33% indicates that there are still opportunities to increase fishing efforts while continuing to apply the principles of sustainable management.

Density and Distribution of Gastropods in Mangrove Forests of Concong Dalam Village, Indragiri Hilir, Riau Province
type: item
description: Gastropods are mangrove organisms that act as bioindicators in mangrove ecosystems. Mangroves are called productive areas because they are rich in organic matter, which is a source of food and shelter for various biota, such as molluscs and other organisms. Human-induced pressure will cause damage to the mangrove ecosystem. The destruction of the mangrove ecosystem will affect the life of all biota that live in it, including gastropods. This study aims to determine the density and distribution pattern of gastropods in the mangrove area of Concong Dalam Village. This research was carried out in August-September 2024 in Concong Dalam Village. The method used in this study is the survey method. The data obtained is then calculated and analyzed. The results of the study show that there are 11 species of gastropods, nine genera, and six families, including Potamididae (3 types), Neritidae (2 types), Littorinidae (2 types), Ellobidae (1 type), Melogenidae (1 type), and Muricidae (1 type). The six types of mangroves found in this study are Rhizophora apiculata, R. mucronata, Bruguiera cylindrica, Avicennia alba, Sonneratia alba, and Nypa fruticans. The density value of gastropods obtained in Concong Dalam Village ranges from 2.67 – 11.39 ind/m2. The distribution pattern found in Concong Dalam Village is uniform, with an id value of 0.31-0.44. The density of mangroves in Concong Dalam Village ranges from 600 to 1967 p/ha, with the damage criteria being very good
